event registration
Timebox: 15 min.
- Aaron Parecki Let's talk about improving the event registration process having learned from previous years wiki RSVPs vs ti.to registrations vs indie RSVPs. E.g. datapoints:
- people indie RSVPd but didn't ti.to: https://indiewebcamp.com/irc/2016-06-02#t1464901363292
- people edited the wiki, didn't ti.to or indie RSVP: https://indiewebcamp.com/irc/2016-06-02#t1464906696677
- Noting that there's no mention of ti.to at https://indiewebcamp.com/2016 under RSVP

presenting
Timebox: 1 hour
rename to indieweb
- Aaron Parecki (for Ben Roberts) Rename main IndieWebCamp identity to "IndieWeb" - indiewebcamp.com redirect to indieweb.org, change IRC channel from #indiewebcamp to #indieweb and other related #indieweb-* channels. Maybe keep a separate channel for logs of camps and HWCs so as not to make it difficult for people to read when there is a camp going on (i'm probably going too far with that). All channels being bridged between slack would be nice as well.
- +1 Aaron Parecki
- Michael Bishop potentially move Loqi notifications regarding wiki edits to -dev or some other internal channel. Also think about testing wiki definitions outside of main channel. I would also suggest thinking about the retweets and other automated messages in the channel intended for newcomers be minimized if possible.
- +1000 to everything miklb said :) Kyle Mahan

Tasks:
- create a new page with the proposal and details
- encourage +1/0/-1 on the proposal (like we did with the logo)
- goal: flip the switch on 2016-07-04
homepage
- Shane Becker #homepage: Outside of the scope of the newskin, I think we can make the homepage better or redesign it altogether.
- +1 gRegor Morrill
- +1 Kyle Mahan
- +1 Aaron Parecki I support this, but it's a dangerous rabbit hole to go down, and likely requires more time than a single session at this event. Maybe we can come up with some goals for what a new homepage should do as an outcome of this discussion.
